Engine oil level indicator

Abstract

The invention provides an engine oil level indicator, which consists of a handle and an oil scale. A turning area is arranged at the upper end of the handle and used for preventing the handle from being interfered with other engine accessories in the inserting and drawing process of the oil level indicator, and a customer uses the engine oil level indicator conveniently. Furthermore, a section of sunken area is arranged at the lower end of the oil scale and used for preventing friction from occurring between the oil scale when the oil level indicator is drawn out and a conduit and enabling the oil position attached to the oil scale to be clear. The oil level indicator is attractive and elegant in structural appearance, and under the severe limiting conditions on space and structure, can have the advantages that the assembly is convenient, users are comfortable in use, the oil level on the oil scale is clear and can be read easily, the structure is simple, the manufacturability is good, the cost is low, and simultaneously the structural requirement of the conduit matched with the oil level indicator is low.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of tools, and in particular relates to an engine oil level gauge. Background technique [0002] The oil level gauge is generally composed of a handle, a seal, and an oil dipstick. By cooperating with the oil level gauge guide or other parts, it is assembled on the engine. The oil level gauge is a component used to measure the amount of lubricating oil in the engine cavity. It can not only measure the oil level, but also can The color of the oil can be used to judge whether the oil is deteriorated. [0003] The layout of today's engines is becoming more and more compact, and the installation space of the oil level gauge is getting smaller and smaller. During the process of plugging and unplugging the oil level gauge, it is easy to interfere with other accessories of the engine. This puts forward some requirements for the handle structure of the oil level gauge. ,Many oil level gauges use steel wire curved h...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The layout of today's engines is becoming more and more compact, and the installation space of the oil level gauge is getting smaller and smaller. During the process of plugging and unplugging the oil level gauge, it is easy to interfere with other accessories of the engine. This puts forward some requirements for the handle structure of the oil level gauge. ,Many oil level gauges use steel wire curved handles to solve the problem of narrow space, but its appearance and comfort are difficult to meet customer requirements

[0004] In addition, according to the specific structure of the engine, the direction of the oil level gauge conduit will be tortuous, and the oil dipstick of the oil level gauge also needs to bend in the conduit. It is easy to rub against the wall of the conduit, making the position of the oil attached to it blurred

In order to solve this problem, some oil level gauges add some protrusions (such as rubber parts) near the oil measuring scale section to isolate the lower end of the oil dipstick from the conduit wall, but this increases the materials and processes and increases the cost.
